Honestly...not sure why Gillmore would be considered for any head coaching jobs (including UW)...as he has never been a coordinator. I love that he played at UW, and coached under Tiller for a stint or two, but you don't see the fry cook becoming the general manager these days.
Maybe Rocky was effing with Glenn on the comment, you know, head games amongst coaches. After all, NM did beat our ass this year 24 - 0. Lastly, by Rocky stepping down he knows he isn't going to make HC money at the DC level...and Gillmore isn't making millions at Knebraska either.
